Can we eat to starve cancer? The answer is yes. In a TED talk, Dr. William Li introduces the idea of starving cancer cells by not allowing them to obtain their own blood supply. Without their own blood supply they can not grow and spread. Cancer cells put out signals, telling the body to make new blood vessels in the exact place the cancer cell is located. However, by eating anti-angeogenic foods which act as a natural inhibitor of angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels), you can inhabit the body from producing these blood vessels to cancerous cells.
I believe this is an incredible discovery and should be more global and talked about. Without learning this in school, I wouldn't have known about this amazing knowledge and be able to use it to benefit myself. With this new information, impoverished countries and countries lacking many medical resources, can still have a way to prevent and cure this deathly disease.
